Nameless King

They headed to a restaurant that Aurora thought was the best in town. The restaurant was centrally located in one of the tallest buildings, so they had a view of the beautiful scenery beyond the walls.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Ern tapped his finger on the table in a nervous manner while drool was gradually pouring out of his mouth.

"Hey, will you stop doing that already?" Aurora frowned as she smashed on the table.

"That's easy for you to say! You have no idea how hungry I am. Ever since I woke up in this town, I haven't been able to eat properly yet, everything has been too chaotic, but today I'm finally getting some rest!" Ern exclaimed with a happy look.

Crackling.

A waiter entered the hall.

"Looks like you don't have long to wait, do you?" Wain asked while looking at the waiter.

It was a young girl with short blond hair. She was carrying two trays on, each of which was a multitude of dishes with wonderful aromas that spread throughout the building.

"Quick...!" Ern muttered.

"Bon appetit!" The girl said with a smile on her face as she placed the dishes on the table.

Everyone's eyes widened as they had never seen anything like this, it was really something unique, however, someone were not excited at all.

"What shit is this?" Ern exclaimed with an angry look, "Where's the meat?!"

There were unusual fruits and vegetables on the plates, as well as several salads. All of the fruits exuded unusual energy and shone brightly like stars.

"You should be grateful to me." Aurora waved her hand, "Each of these fruits is worth a fortune. You need them to gain energy and become much stronger as these fruits are useful even to those in the Fifth Chronicle, not to mention you. Also, they are very tasty, I see no reason to complain."

"Yeah... They look incredible..." Erza muttered as she took fruit from her plate that looked like a rainbow strawberry.

Multicolored energy waves came from the berry, but when Erza touched it, the energy became golden, just like hers, while using the queen's power.

A crackle.

Erza took a bite as her eyes and hair shone brightly, her aura intensified, and goosebumps went all over her body.

"This is incredible... I feel like if I eat a few more of these berries, I can get to the limit of the Third Chronicle." Erza muttered and swallowed the strawberries whole.

Alas sat with a thoughtful look, he didn't know what to choose since everything was very interesting, but he wanted something out of the ordinary.

"Take it!" The Royal Spirit exclaimed as everyone heard his voice.

"Hmm?" Alas looked to the center of the table.

There was a golden round fruit with several sharp outgrowths that made it look a little like a star.

"Are you sure?" Alas asked.

"Of course! This will be perfect for you. Don't hesitate!"

Alas nodded, took the fruit, and took a small bite.

Whooooooooosh.

A ripple of energy emitted from Alas that spread dozens of meters around him. His energy completely replenished, and the world became clearer and brighter for a moment.

"Not bad, right?" Aurora grinned as she picked up a small white berry.

"Ern, aren't you interested in all this?" Wain asked while looking at Ern that as though was ready to explode.

Ern's veins swelled, and he clenched his teeth so hard as if sparks were about to fly from it while his fingers dug into the table.

Crackle.

Ern stood up, tossed the chair aside, and headed for the exit.

"Hey! Where are you going?" Aurora exclaimed indignantly.

"To get some normal food! You keep eating grass if you want to! I'm not a cow to do that! I eat cows! Ugh!" Ern forcefully opened the doors as they flew off their hinges and impressed into the wall that shook the entire restaurant.

"What's going on?"

"Is it an earthquake?"

"Is someone attacking us?!"

The patrons exclaimed with worried looks while dust fell from the ceiling on them, but they were too shocked to notice it.

"Ahahahahahaha." Wain laughed, "Well, it certainly wasn't the best decision to call Demon into a vegan restaurant."

"It's not a vegan restaurant at all." Aurora waved her hand with a disgruntled look, "But, only fruit has that unique energy, I just wanted you to move forward."

"Well, it doesn't matter to Ern. You should have thought of that and ordered him some plates filled with meat, that would have been much better." Wain shrugged.

"Shut up. By the way, why haven't you touched your food yet? It's especially important for you as you're still weak, and your energy is unstable." Aurora pointed the finger at Wain.

"Oh, I'm just waiting." Wain said in a calm voice.

"What?" Aurora tilted her head.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The ground trembled as in the distance, powerful explosions and someone's pained screams rang out outside the city.

"What's going on!" Aurora exclaimed in a worried voice as she stood up.

"Well, well, Aurora, you're a definitely grown woman, but don't you know that fruits and vegetables are best as a side dish and not as a main course? At least Ern knows that, perhaps even too well." Wain smiled.

Whoooooooosh.

A massive shadow appeared over the restaurant that seemed so large it could have eclipsed the sun.

Bam.

Next to the kitchen landed Ern, as he held above him a huge wild boar bigger than the house.

"You!" Ern pointed at the head cook while continuing to hold the boar with one hand.

"Y-Yes?" The head cook shuddered.

"Cook me that boar as fast as you can, or I swear to God I'll eat one of you, and I'm not kidding, damn it!" Ern plopped the boar on the ground as that shook the town.

"Of course! I'll do it now." The head cook exclaimed as he waved his hand, "Let's go! Get to work!"

"But... Boss, we've got lots of other orders." One of the cooks said.

"Are you an idiot? If we don't roast this boar now, the next order will be us!"
